Advanced settings for table

Caption

A user-typed caption can be added above the table.

Example: Let us assume that we have a table of load cases:

When we add a caption (e.g. This is my caption on advanced tab sheet), we get

The button [...] next to the input box allows for the adjustment of the page style, e.g. the font for the caption can be altered there.

Table style

Automatic style

If ON, the style preset by the manufacturer is applied.

If OFF, you can define your own style for each "type" (header, odd line, even line) of table line.

Header style

You can select one of the defined styles and say that this particular style will be used for the table header.

The button [...] next to the combo box allows for the adjustment of the page style, e.g. the selected font can be altered there.

Rotated header

If ON, the texts in the header of the table are rotated 90° counter-clockwise to create vertically oriented text. This makes it possible to put more text into the header while keeping the table narrow (e.g. to fit one page).

Odd line style

You can select one of the defined styles and say that this particular style will be used for the odd lines in the table.

The button [...] next to the combo box allows for the adjustment of the page style, e.g. the selected font can be altered there.

Even line style

You can select one of the defined styles and say that this particular style will be used for even lines in the table.

The button [...] next to the combo box allows for the adjustment of the page style, e.g. the selected font can be altered there.

Internal table

This option says that the table will be used as an internal (sub)template for another template. Such a template is not offered among the available templates in the combo box on the document toolbar. It appears only in the list of available items in the Standard settings tab sheet of the Table Composer dialogue.
